Regeneration

This book is written by Pat Barker and it is really really interesting.
This book is about the First World War and is mostly about the physical and mental consequences of war. Craiglockhart War Hospital is a mental institution where Sassoon was sent to for disagreeing with the war. There he meets a lot of other men who suffer from mental illnesses which are effects of the war. He also meets Owen whom he inspires to write poems about war. This book is extremely interesting and I think everyone should read it. It allows you tounderstand what the different after-effects of war are like.
P.S. Mr Pollicutt, I did read the book
